Older than it looked in photos, dents in wall, dangerous step down to bathroom, air conditioner doesn’t get cold enough - and my room is right next to a speed bump so vehicles always braking and then revving up noisily. In the plus side , wifi level is good by Myanmar standards

Disliked: Amenities
The section that I was placed in was a little outdated,with heavy furniture which when moved about made a lot of noise which was quite noticeable if you were on the lower floor and the residents in the above room were moving about. Also the bathroom shower threw water all over the floor. On reflection I should have requested a room overlooking the pool which was situated away from the main pedestrian traffic.

Perfect business hotel close to the airport
Myanmar life hotel is a nice spot for a quick stop over or 1-2 days business meetings. Compared to the price, the rooms are comfy enough and clean. Breakfast is decent and is provided in a not-so-big breakfast room. The staff were very friendly, cordial and responsive. Language was a barrier for communication but they take all efforts to understand you. The swimming pool is great and good place for relaxing.

Fair value for money in an older hotel
While the hotel is a fair value for money, there were some things that weren't good. They chose to fog the lower level, which included the restaurant, at dinner time. The hallway carpets were very dirty. And the decor in the entire hotel was dated and worn. That said, it has a great pool and the rooms are clean, bug and smell free, and relatively spacious.

Nice and clean hotel, good for stopovers and an early morning flight. There is free hotel transport TO airport. But staff did not reply my message after I replied to them asking for my arrival flight number, and so there is no free hotel transport FROM airport.

Just okay
Great location near the airport, and has free shuttle. If you stay in the first building, there is no elevator, so you have to lug your suitcase to the second floor. One of the employees can help you, but sometimes they are busy and I don’t want to wait. The rooms are a bit run down and the water from the shower gets everywhere in the bathroom. Could have designed that better. Lighting in bathroom is also quite dim. Could use a bigger light bulb. Breakfast was very Asian. No eggs, but they did have toast, fruit, and coffee/tea.

We used the hotel as it was close to the airport for a return flight. They allowed us to check in for the night of the stay at 0600 hours which was really appreciated as we had got off the night coach from Bagan. A nice place to relax with a pool and OK restaurant.

Convenient location near the airport
The best thing about this hotel is its proximity to the airport. So convenient for a one night stopover and the shuttle service is brilliant. There's nothing else in the area so you have to eat in the hotel restaurant which is a bit pricey. We had a room in the old building but it was pleasant enough. I accidentally broke a glass in the room and I took it to the reception. Now I don't mind paying for it to be replaced. But they charged me 5000kyat ($5US) which I think is an unreasonable amount and doesn't communicate to me a spirit of hospitality. One other time when something like that happened in another hotel, they just smiled and said never mind.

Convenient Hotel for air transfers
Good pick up and drop off at airport. Pleasant staff but not the best trained - perhaps as it seems to cater more for Asian visitors. Lovely swimming pool. Big place so rooms may vary but ourse was clean but noisy - street behind. Ask for quiet room. Breakfast Asian but there is a place to order eggs - we only found this out after breakfast!

Convenient transit hotel
I selected this airport hotel because of its free shuttle service. I stayed at the older unit which was adequate. The hotel has a newer section. Breakfast was surprisingly good. There were more Asian selections as expected. Overall it is good value and I would recommend this hotel if one has an early flight out of Yangon.

Convenient airport hotel
Fairly basic hotel, but serves the purpose if you just need somewhere to stay before catching an early flight. It's in need of a good refurbish, but clean. It is very basic as is the breakfast, but transfer to the airport is 5/6 minutes.

Convenient But Drab
The place is old and worn out. We stayed there on a long layover because it had a pool, wifi and free airport pickup. Those three things were spot on. The pool was really nice. The room itself was awful, the toilet leaked and there were a lot of power outages.

Clean and convenient airport hotel
The hotel was fine since we just needed a place to stay overnight before catching a flight the next morning. The short distance to the airport and free transport to the airport were thus the main factors for us. Don't expect any frills though or much around the area. A clean airport hotel that fits the bill for an overnight stopover.

close to the airport for transfer
It is very nice that the hotel was very close to the airport. For transfer was great because you don't have to worry about Yangon traffic. It as a plus that they have a free shuttle bus to and from the airport.However, the only complain was I was there my self for catching flight to Bangkok. I have stranger that knocking on my door in the evening and calling to my room which I don't know of. It make me feel not very safe as a solo female travel. I hope management will make a note of it.

We had a very basic room, overpriced. Buffet breakfast was not good, everything was cold. Friendly staff, as always in Myanmar. Perhaps the poolside rooms are nice but would be even more expensive. I would not stay here again.

Good hotel if you need to be near the airport.
We mostly needed a hotel near the airport and the hotel was fine. By western standards it needs a little more upkeep but by Myanmar standards it's a pretty decent hotel for the price. The staff was friendly, the room was reasonable for the price, wifi is slow but it is slow even at the fanciest hotel in Myanmar so no worries there. I would recommend the hotel if you need a short stay near the airport or between flights. It is 5 minutes from the airport but some 40 minutes from downtown Yangon.

Close to Yangon City without the traffic
Hotel Staff was very helpful and friendly. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The swimming pool area was luxurious. The only negative was that there was some construction of an addditional new hotel building and not all driveways were paved. Other than that it was a nice getaway from the crowded city life of Yangon.
